I neither fear, nor despise.
I left the rest of it unchallenged because I'd rather not argue about this,
 so I'm just gonna bow out of le thread ^______^
Why did you come here if you had nothing substantial to contribute?

We began arguing on whether house flooding is preventable. Not exactly what the thread is about.
Anyways I did post my view on FEMA funds began denied, so I did contribute.
But then you almost derailed it with cherrypicking.

No, I was saying you were generalizing to help your argument.
You said you weren't generalizing.

So obviously the argument just went in circles from there. Hence I dropped it.
Don't bring it back up.
You dropped it as soon as I pointed out that it didn't detract from my argument.

No, you just happened to mention that when I realized I was wasting my time.
But think what you want about it, I'm out. My view on the matter has been stated.

You always leave as soon as an argument stops going in your favor.

Oh look at that.

If I had time to dig up a list of topics that proved you otherwise, I would. But I have crap to do today, and now you are derailing.

Drop it.

ITT: Meta destroying braindead liberals.

OT: I just have one question. Do my tax dollars go towards FEMA? If so, they have no right to withhold anything.

Man Made climate change is a myth.

Don't go playing the victim card here, either. Man up and defend yourself, or don't.

This isn't about fucking money or ideology. This is about innocent human beings living or dying. It seems you're too fucking dense to see that.
Climate denial is entirely about money and ideology.

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.
Climate denial is entirely about money and ideology.
I'd love to watch you tell the ruined families and maimed children why ideology was a good enough reason to support revoking the funds which could've helped them mitigate their suffering.

Why did you come here if you had nothing substantial to contribute?

As a person that lives in one of the states that would be effected this just isn't really fair. I didn't fucking vote for Mary Fallin but yet according to the people in this thread I still "get what I deserve" when an F5 tornado comes barreling through and destroys my whole town and I get no disaster relief. Yes great logic you got there. If you honestly believe in punishing a whole population and putting human lives in immediate danger for a few people's beliefs then you should rightly fucking off yourself.
Relief is not going to be withheld.

But even with preventative FEMA funds, Oklahoma is still one of the least prepared states in the entire country. Complain to Fallin before you complain to FEMA.
Once again I did not vote for Fallin and still I know a lot of that preparedness funding goes to building storm shelters which save a lot of lives. So if you want to have that high of a disregard for human life and say that a population, many of which did not even vote for these people to be in power, deserve to get none of those life saving funds then you may as well fuck off you belligerent little cunt. You fucking liberals like to sit high and mighty and act like your better than everyone but you may as well be the scum of the fucking earth if you wish death upon people based on ideology.
I'm sorry if I don't want disproportionate amounts of FEMA funds going to your state and away from mine because your dipshit governor can't spend it properly.

This is Fallin's doing. She brought it upon herself. Seeing as flattened neighborhoods aren't doing the trick, maybe money's going to be the magic wake-up call.
this would be where I jokingly point out parallels between this comment and a comment a certain conservative user might make concerning welfare. . .

If you are too stubborn to realize that I was talking about preparation being effective in some cases, and then say this:

Um, no amount of preparations and evacuations can prevent house floodings and other property damage.


There was no point in continuing. It's no longer a debate, it's an argument and a gridlock. I'm not here to waste my time arguing with you. I can tell you aren't budging so I'm done going in circles, and making false claims like this to get me back into this argument with you is just childish on your part:

You always leave as soon as an argument stops going in your favor.



You used Hurricane Sandy to back up your statement, which is easy to do considering it was one of the worst recent disasters we've had involving flooding. Sandy was one of the worst, obviously house flooding is happening. You act like it's the only kind of disaster that happens, and therefore house flooding is simply absolute.


How is preparation effective in the case of a disaster? Levies. Shelters, food, boarding up windows of homes, plenty can be done. IN SOME CASES not all of those will change much, but if preparation was proven to never do anything for anybody ever, nobody would do it. Preparation can also be done to prevent house flooding in some cases.

To claim such is just plain wrong.

You guys should look on the bright side, at least no one is stupid enough to deny climate change in this thread.
